A Diet TBPN podcast episode (recorded Jan 27, 2026) covering rapid community uptake of Claudebot/Claude Code running on Mac Minis—its technical friction, developer product–market fit, security/privacy risks, and likely responses from major AI labs—framed with historical analogies (Napster, GPT‑3 → ChatGPT). The hosts also discuss commerce impacts (Shopify outages, OpenAI’s ChatGPT instant-checkout 4% fee), creator tech (Meta Ray‑Bans clips), and Alex Honnold’s Netflix live Taipei 101 free-solo climb (production choices, safety perception, and monetization opportunities). The episode mixes technical analysis, business implications, and cultural commentary.
